Reuse patternlab pattern data by reference within other components/patterns.
npm install patternlab-pattern-dataThis is a PatternLab plugin for utilizing other pattern's data in a pattern
data.
Add the following section info the patternlab-config.json file.
``json`
{
"plugins": {
"patternlab-pattern-data": {
"enabled": true
}
}
}
In a pattern's data file, data may be referenced from another pattern.
`yamlShorthand syntax referencing the menu pattern by its "patternPartial", which
can be found as the "p" parameter in the URL when browsing the PatternLab UI.
menu: 'patternData@organisms-menu'
Additionally, a long-form syntax is available. In the future, it may be
possible to utilize additional data or configurations from within plugin.
One idea here is that we'd be able to "extend" the other pattern's data with
data provided here. Other behaviors or functionality may also be possible.
